Ronald G. Beckett is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Biomedical Sciences at Quinnipiac University. Gerald Conlogue is Co-Director of the Bioanthropology Research Institute at Quinnipiac College. In 1999, Beckett and Conologue co-founded the Bioanthropology Research Institute at Quinnipiac University. Their work with mummified remains has been featured in television documentaries on paleoimaging including on the Discovery, Learning, and National Geographic channels. For National Geographic, they travelled to over 13 countries where they served as co-hosts for a three-year, 40 episode documentary series called "The Mummy Road Show." In 2009, CRC Press published Paleoimaging: Field Applications for Cultural Remains and Artifacts and Advances in Paleoimaging in 2020. In addition to conducting paleoimaging research, they continue to speak at various scientific symposia, museums, and civic organizations around the world. Andrew J. Nelson is Professor of Anthropology (bioarchaeology) at Western University in London, Ontario, Canada. He is widely published in the field of paleoimaging and his research interests include the use of non-destructive imaging of human skeletal remains and artifacts, Peruvian bioarchaeology, and hominin growth and development.
